Francois Lionet has established a Patreon to help fund development of AMOS 2, a successor to the popular AMOS Basic programming language and development studio he helped create for the Commodore Amiga.

The original AMOS Basic became popular with coders looking to get started in games development, and various projects were released in the years following it’s release.

AMOS 2 will leverage the power of JavaScript and modern technologies to include a level backwards compatibility with the original version, and there are also plans afoot to include a modern, WebGL-powered version of AMOS 3D.

Lionet is planning to include a level of integration with the Friend platform, and an early version of the AMOS 2 tool-set is expected to launch some time in early November.

Clearly this is something that Francois is very passionate about, and you can help make his vision become a reality by heading over to his Patreon page and making a contribution.
